Report Details

Beach south of Rock Creek. South section (including Rock Creek) erosion now severe. No access to beach because of vertical face of bluff. Drainage makes face muddy. Perhaps this section of 183 could be reached from north shore of Big Creek to the south. If so, could it be added to that mile? Pull off on HWY 101 very dangerous because of wear and lack of visibility of traffic from the north.
